1968 Map of San Onofre Bluff

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station dominates the northern coastline of this 1968 revision, marking a significant industrial presence along the Gulf of Santa Catalina. The map illustrates a narrow corridor of infrastructure squeezed between the Pacific and the rugged uplands of Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base. This tight transportation belt includes the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and the San Diego and Santa Fe Freeway, following the natural line of the Bluff and San Onofre Beach. Inland, the landscape is defined by the historic boundaries of the Las Flores Grant, where steep canyons meet the military installation. The presence of the Weigh Station and the small settlement of Agra further highlight the area's role as a vital transit link between major Southern California coastal hubs during the late 1960s.
